NEW RELEASE
BRIGHT BIRDS BOOK 1

Mrs. Tan's Grand Plan

Meet the Bright Birds, a colorful group of young birds living in a town where families lead separate lives, leaving the community dull and divided. But everything changes when Mrs. Tan hatches a grand plan—a musical one that brings the young birds together, showing their neighbors how music can mend even the deepest divisions.

This beautifully illustrated rhyming story about unity, friendship, and the power of music is perfect for readers ages 4 to 8.

GLAD TO MEET YOU

I'm Tommie, the Author

Yes, that is 8-year-old me eagerly awaiting the singing of the birthday song, so that I can dig into that bowl of ice cream. And yes, the slightly older version finds it difficult to turn down a bowl of my favorite... cookies and cream! 

Now as a pastor, former educator and politician, I am acutely aware of the issues that can divide us. It has been a joy creating the Bright Birds providing an opportunity to promote community while bringing smiles to children's faces... much like a big bowl of ice cream!
